Indeed, and the first one should be libc :-) I have been playing around
with SLBs a little bit, trying to make a simple GEM-library (just some
dialog-stuff) just for the sake of it. However, since I lack a libc it's
pretty difficult to write anything decent, the best I could do was to
lock the entire lib whenever it was entered. Not the best solution...

Again, libc is absolutely necessary. Does anybody here want to port/write
something like this?? I don't ;-)

Correct. That's why I don't bother supporting anything else than my setup
and my own needs ;-)
